Hi All,

Glad I stumbled upon this site of quilters! I'm Paula and love to quilt. :D . I'm fairly new to quilting and love to make quilts for my family, as well as for a Miniature Pinscher rescue that I volunteer for.

I'm exctied to see there are many other dog lovers/animal lovers in this group. I just finished a quilt that I will be donating to our rescue group for Minpins. I attached
a photo of the top. I still need to get it long-arm quilted.

I look forward to sharing ideas and learning new quilting ideas from the group.

Most of the silhouettes are from my own dogs. I just enlarged them and then cut them out. I rescue minpins, so I have a lot of photos of them. That gives me a lot to choose from. I also got a couple off the internet. I'm working on the pattern to sell. After our quilt raffle for the minpins, I usually have people asking about it, so this year I'll offer to sell them the pattern, which will include the sillouettes.

Minpins are awesome dogs! Glad to here you have one too.

I'm in Sugar Grove, IL. Where in Illinois are you located?

Hello Paula, welcome from northern California! Your quilt is very special!

Thank you. I just finished making two minpin silhouette pillows. I'll post them in a few minutes.

The background of these pillows were made with Anne Faustino's "Simply Stunning Woven Quilts", which I learned of on this forum.
